.5-.PIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The forced loan to which the Spanish Government have had recourse is evidently a strong measure, and the most urgent necessity can alone justify it. But, in the critical situation in which Spain now is, the men , who are at the helm of publfic affairs, and responsible for the public safety, 11111 ::st know better than any per sons in this country t.'tie amount of the danger, and tly e best means of mee:cing it. It is not an ordinary, mea sure, nor is it adapted to ordinary times ; but we ought not to be too rigorous in our demands for the observance, of what is strictly in accordance with legal forms at. a time when the dissolution of all law is to be apprehended. It was obviously impossible to continue th..e administration of affairs without obtaining m oney . Under the present circumstances of the country the Government could not have recourse to a foreign loan except upon ruinous terms. The public taxes could not be calculated upon, their collection in such a dis organized state of society being out of the question. What course remained ? Clearly nothing but that which the Minister adopted, When our Tory Contemporaries talk of ‘ 4 robbery" in such a case, they mason much in the same fashion as would a highwayman if he complained of a traveller for expending part of his property to purchase protec tion for the remainder. We dare say, had Gomez found some of the towns which he pillaged on his pre datory excursion into Galicia protected by a well-paid army ,: he w ou ld h ave loudly complained of the " roh liery of a forced contribution, for the purpose of de fence. If you ask one of these honest reasoners the common sense question, where are funds to be found to terminate the war?—his answer, though not, perhaps, in direct terms, is, our object is not to terminate the war, or, if it be terminated, let it be in favour of Don Carlos. And it is because this consummation is likely to be averted by measures of the Government, that we hear the complaint of " robbery." May we ask, did any of those persons who condemn the decree of Ca latrava hear of a " forced loan" having been levied by Don Carlos ? Let it be borne in mind that the mo ney to be raised to meet the present exigencies of the country is to be repaid by instalments at stated inter vals. One great advantage, beside the supply of pre sent necessity, which we anticipate from the measure of the Spanish Government, is the very extensive and powerful interest it creates in support of the Queen's cause. When the security of property becomes so bound up with the existence of a Government, we have the best guarantee for the stability of both.—Morning Chronicle. " We must be your equals," said Mr. Sheil, ad dressing Englishmen, and speaking of the Irish in the mass. We answered, " God, of his infinite mercy, grant you may be." We endeavoured to show Mr. Sheil, that whatever Parliament might enact, the ex citable character of the Irish, and the inflammable harangues of agitators, must, wbile the latter continue, ever prevent the Irish peasantry from rising much above the condition of savages. Do we blame the peasantry—do we level our reproaches at them ?No —the peasantry are 'merely the agents; the agitators are the principals : the peasantry inhumanly shed inno cent blood, but the O'Connells and the General Asso ciationists urge them to the commission of the horrid crimes they perpetrate, and which they have carried to so fearful an extent as to render Ireland famous for cruel and cold-blooded assassination throughout the whole civilised world. Hunger and nakedness--pri vations the most unendurable—lend their aid to this frightful demoralization, and therefore it is that O'Con nell opposes the introduction of Poor Laws into Ire land, while the Whigs, why or wherefore we shudder to think, back him in his opposition to that simple measure of mere humanity. "Justice to Ireland" is the cry of the Agitators and of the Ministerial Swiss ; yet 'the poor are suffered to perish like beasts of the field, and those who raise the cry of justice turn a deaf ear to the groans of the starving population. " They are your equals," exclaim the whole gang of impostors, while, in the same breath, they deny to these equals the commonest offices of charity, and give us narra tives of atrocities committed by them which the whole of the rest of the world cannot match ! In this con dition of social degradation do Whig perfidy and greediness of pelf and pride of place tend to keep Ire land. Talk of admitting the Irish to a participation in our political privileges Why are they refused the more essential and substantial, benefits of food and raiment ? We will tell the reader: Meat and clothing are costly articles. Political vapourings are as cheap as the dust that is trampled under foot, and not less fleeting and unsubstantial than the wind that scatters it where it listeth. The Whigs parade the sufferings of Ireland as the street-beggar exhibits a diseased child—not that the child may be healed, but that the beggar may make a profit by it. And since how long a time is it, we beg our readers to recollect that . the Whigs and their underling s have raised this cuckoo try of equality of civil rights to Ire .. land? They passed a Coercion Bill for Ireland. Was that a measure fitted for the population of Great Bri tain ? We think not : and we cannot for the life of us persuade ourselves that Lord Mulgrave, clever as he may be in pantomime tricks, can possibly have so transformed and metamorphosed the Irish, that the Whigs may safely, after the lapse of only a year or two, legislate for coerced Ireland in the same manner in which they legislate for Britain. Moreover, put ting the Coercion Bill out of the queFAion, all the M Whig measures f or Ireland, and especially the Iri s h Municipal Bill, have proceeded on the assumption, Irish w i t h t h e powers that it is imp oss ibl e to trust the and the privileges that have 'been extended to the in habitants of Great Britaie e , This cry of " equay," therefore, i s , if possible, more ab sur d even than lit the cry of " justice' is insulting to the Irish. W are told by a Mi n i ster i al pr i nt, that it is an eternal dis grace to the Irish Protestants to exact tithes from " the miserable Catholic cultivators of the ground in Ireland." Now those " Catholic cultivators," how ever pressed, are not half as miserable as this writer, unless the misfortune of poverty he heavier than the sins of fraud and falsehood. Why do the " miserable Catholic cultivators " pay tithes ? Why, in conse: quence of the sordid and selfish proceedings of the masters of this fraudulent and dishonest writer. The House of Lords actually - passed a Bill to relieve the " miserable Catholic cultil''ators" from the payment of tithes ; but the base Whio-s—this m an ' s Masters— refused t o a robber accept it, because it conta i ned no clause of y and spolip.tion for their own aggrandize ment I The " mareh of intellect" may, perhaps, not withstanding our belief t o the contrary, be takina vast steps, but assuredly the " boots °f brass. The accounts from Ireland have l e d ::ilutaese reflections. The King's speech spoke of tea ty in that coun try ; and the Lord-Lieutenant) liiakina mrinla thep ebxhorta rooTess of the country, has invariably is,,,t in Lion of Dick, the butcher of Ashord to Jack' Cade lirea open the " If we. mean to thrive ; and do good, gaols and set the . priso•aers free." Still his Excellency and the Ministers I .lave failed to justify the flatteriilg but false phrases - which were devoted to Ireland in the Ministerial sr, - ,e , ..!ch from the throne. Look at th e " General Association." It is as unsightly a sore as ever festered slowly in a body politic. Look, too, at the accounts from the provinces. Take the state of Tipperary. What do the papers of that county tell us? Why 30 prisoners were lodged in the gaol o f this town on Saturday last, being the contri , bution of tlie county for one week ; 234 have been com mitted, since the r istlt of July last, being little more than fiv'e weeks ; the aaol d re are at pres ent near 400 in the , an it is v ery ffenerally believed there must be a eommission issr.e'd to clear the prison out, or it will be incapable of containing its wretched tenants. This is a frightful anti appalling-state of things •it makes one's b • heart sick, to think of the deplorable depth of human crime and recklessness in which the people are sunk. We'rte the returns we have giive n th ose o f t h e ent i re country, they would h e shocking to reflect upon ; but tO find all this tremendous amount of persons, accused of the most serious crimes, in one county, is worse And let it also be / borne i n m i n d , than h orr ifyi ng . that with the exception of the northern counties, there are few that do not contribute their quota of culprits to 1 the state of the country;' and though Tipperary stands prominently forward in the annals of iniquity, she has admirable adjuncts in her surrounding neighbours." Consider, also, how much more early than the ag44.. Till: SUN, LONDON, MON the labou r h °t . p opu l at i on—an d w h at port i on o f this do Lords r e p resen t ? O w i ng t o th e l aw er .Lis of entail and primogeniture, which protects the pro perty of the Peer from the claims of his creditor, and, by cheating the yotnisser thildren of their natural hilietitance s gives the heir a perpetuity of the estate, an undue portion of the land 'of the kingdom rests in the handS of the Afistooa c y Nvo if they pos sessed every acre in d othinions, it is not they but th'e Industrial classes—agricultural, manu facturing, and commercial—which would represent the property of the nation. And, as to intelligence, it is almost an insult to the common sense of the country to reply to the assertion, that it is represented by the Lords. If it were not for the supply of intelligence which they occasionally draw from the House of Commons, the intellect of the Lords would be at zero. If, therefore, the Lords neither represent the people, nor the property, nor intellioence of the nation, what do they represent ? They represent the despotic prin ciple, the remnant of a corrupt and oppressive sys tem i its prejudice, bigotry, and intolerance. Where ver an abuse exist—whatever is evil in the State—is sure to find sympathy and support in the Lords. Wit ness their opposition to a reform of the House of Commons —witness their opposition to the reform of the English Corporations—to the reform of the English Church—to the reform of the Irish Church—of the Irish Corporations—of the various abuses which we have not space to enumerate, and which, but for the Lords would have long stsice ceased to defile our insti tutions. The Lords have had a fair and patient trial, but inetZad of endeavouring to excuse, they have gloried in their outrages on public liberty : justice now demands her due, and the public interests and safety require protection from oligarchic invasio n . Th e advantages of reform must not be sacrificed to an i ns tit u ti o n which, originating in barbarous times, is inapplicable to the existing relations of society. It is downright madness to suppose that the Lords can stop the progress of a people awake to the blessings of popular institutions, and determined upon the assertion of their rights. If they stand in the way of the tide of public opinion, they will be ingulfed for ever : as it is, but one means of escape remains to the Lords—that is, Peerage Reform. It is an old and stale trick with the enemies of the people, whenever questions of reform are mooted which are so manifestly consonant with justice and necessity as to preclude the possibility of rational op position, to coin some mystic and unmeaning phrase to alarm the fears or appeal to the prejudices of the timid and unreflecting. While Catholic emancipation was being agitated it was endeavoured to stun the public mind with the din of " No Popery." - The qUestion of Parliamentary Reform was met by an ap peal to " our glorious constitution." When the esta blished religion is to be purified of the profligate and disgraceful abuses which alienate the affection of its members and disgust the public, the holy cheats cry out " Church in danger." And now the demand for a reform of the House of Lords is responded to by the political Matvtvorms with a grave shake of the head and the cant of " Beware of organic changes." The time is past for such cabala to influence the public mind, farther than to excite its ridicule anti contempt. To deny organic changes is to deprecate the Reform Act, and endeavour to escape its best results. The Reform of the House of Commons was but a first step, and even if that Reform were sufficiently ex tensive, which it is not, while the House of Lords is left unreformed, the work is but half done. What rendered a Reform of the House of Com mons necessary ? What was the evil to be remedied by the change ? The influence of the House of Lords in nominating its Members. What good then have we obtained by achieving that reform, at such risk and cost, if we suffer the Lords to do now, in their own House, what before the passing of the Reform Act they did by proxy in the House of Commons,—deny to the people a fair participation in the government of the State ? What would be thought of a man who would enter into a contract and sell a house or estate, and when the bargain was concluded put the keys in his pocket, place a guard to prevent the entrance of the purchaser, and exclude him from possession ? Would he not be denounced as a common swindler, or something worse ? And what else is the conduct of those who covenanted with the people for Reform, and yet by refusing the Reform of the House of Lords, on the pretext of its being an organic change, exclude them from the key of all satisfactory amelioration ? Away with such mincing and deceitful politician s . The people re j ec t t h e i r support, an d despise their dupli city.—Morning Advertiser. It is in the recollection of our readers that at the period when the Irish Tithe Bill was about to be sent up from the House of Commons to the House of Lords we intimated the probability that the measure, with the anticipated amendment of their Lordships, might be accepted by his Majesty's Ministers, and as serted the fact that some of the Irish Roman Catholic Members of the House of Commons, including Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Sheil, had spontaneously commu nicated to the King's Government their readiness to acquiesce in this prudent and salutary course. We distinctly averred that some Members of the House of Commons, from whom the most determined and vio lent resistance was generally expected to the excision of the appropriation clause, were prepared to abandon that nefarious and ill-omened portion of the Ministerial measure, and were most anxious for the Tithe Bill, with or without this excrescence, because they had already sustained severe loss, and felt that they must suffer still greater, in that conflict with the law which their politi cal position would compel them to maintain so long as the law remained in its present state. It will be recollected also that, in laying this information before the public, we stood absolutely alone. Our statement was not repeated, unless our memory deceive us, by any of our Conservative nor contradicted by any of our Ministerial contemporaries. The latter, if they were entrusted, which we doubt, with the secret of what was going on, thought it imprudent to provoke any discussion upon the subject, while the former might, reasonably enough, be deterred from echoing our statement by its apparent improbability. It is very satisfactory to us, even after so long an interval of time, to have the means of proving by evidence wholly unexceptionable that the statement we offered to the public three months ago was in all respects correct—not merely correct in substance, but accurate in form and detail. Mr. O'Connell and the Examiner have, luckily for us, " fallen out," and accordingly (for the excellent old proverb is verified here to the letter) we "come to our own." The Examiner is not pleased with M r . O'C onnell. The latter in describing w a •l r i e ic h h eld hi b s y porloejepcetsoplaendof th osei t n io is n tra i t n ion o ti f ic his es A ti d m m a Eng land has for once spoken the truth, which our Radical Contemporary deems very impolitic 3 V ery unnatural, and with a l very offensive, lit is, however, Mr. O'Con nell's unseas on able A . ,, monition to Lord M e lb ourne re specting " the ia ut ' , 7 of the ee " short Parliament s ," " re f orm Ls' to -sts, &c., which has provoked th e E xam i ner .nat revelation of the secrets of the Whig-Radical party in which we are especially interested. This im portant disclosure is made as follows : " These suggestion s are all in the right direction, but they come with an odd grace from Mr. O'Connell, who was in the past session the ready apologist for the most unpo pular policy of the Government, and whose promptings on one most important occasion, had they been heeded, would have committed the Ministry to an infamy unpafalleled, and to certain ruin. It is notorious that he wished Mi nisters to accept the. Irish Tithe Bill without the appro priation clause, and thus to waive the principle, by holding which to be indispensable they had broken up the Govern ment of Sir Robert Peel." It is painful to an honourable mind to lay under the suspicion of having- on any occasion, or in any circum stances, contributed or attempted to deceive the public. From this painful and injurious suspicion we arc now vindicated most fully. Mr. O'Connell and other Irish Roman Catholic Members of the House of Commons (for Mr. O'Connell is never deserted), did wish, as we stated, and expressed the wish (or how could it have be'come " notorious"), that :Ministers should ac cept the Irish Tithes Bill without the appropriation clause. And there was a strong probability (which is exactly what we said) that Ministers, who had done so much, and were still willing to do so much more, of what is pernicious to the country, in compliance with th e wish of Mr. O'Connell and his partisans, would not thwart them in the single particular in which their personal wishes and interests coincide with the public tors anticipated the "parson-shooting season" has com menced. Already a respectable clergyman has been singled out and marked for slaughter, as an encourage ment to Lord Melbourne and the rest of the 11;iniisters to persevere in a course that ina-; possibly end in the butchery of all the P indeed, t clergy—thus u giving, indeed, an c erg)— s " a heavy blow and a great discouragement to Protestantism." A Limerick paper says—" We are deeply concerned to announce that another at tempt has been made against the life of the Rev. Charles P. Coote, Rector of Doone, while riding home from divine service on Sunday last in th Yibon dav, by the plantations of Timoline, 011 e of two san guinary ruffians who lay in wait ta this highly respec table clergyman, presented a gun at him, and fired, but providentially withr3ut effect ; and the other was pre pared for a second shot, when the approach of foot steps fortunately disappointed those savage miscreants, who fled under cover of the plantations. The Rev. Mr. Coote is thus made an object for the deadly aim of assassins, because of resorting to legitimate means for the recovery of his lawful income from those only who are able but unwilling to pay them." Our Irish correspondent, who announced on Saturday this at tempt to murder Mr. Coote, held this language ; " The clergyman who thus providentially escaped the bullet of the assassin is, I have reason to know, one of the most kind-hearted men in that part of the country, and until the agitation against tithes arrived at a great height, he was extremely popular in the district. But since that period, certainly, the Rev. Mr. Coote has been remarkable for his exertions to enforce his legal rights, and hence he has been singled out as the victim of reckless and cold-blooded assassins. This, then, may be regarded as the opening of the `tithe campaign' of the approachibg winter, which, there is too much reason to apprehend, will be marked by the most calamitous deeds of blood. The last winter and Spring passed over in comparative tran quillity, 'but the struggle between the clergy and the tithe recusants is daily becoming closer by the exten sive adoption of commissions of rebellion,' and I fear before three months elapse that you will have to re cord many on act of bloodshed in the south and west of Ireland." Will the rest of the wretched Ministerial organs tell us (by way of excuse) that these bloody attempts arise from the " miserable Catholic cultiva tors ' being called upon to pay tithe ? If so, let them settle that matter with their masters. The Lords and the minority of the House of Commons would have saved the kingdom from these disgraces had the Whigs and Whig Radicals permitted them. But the case is too clear to be mystified ; the Ministers and their minions must fall back upon the cry of "equality," while every honest and humane man will tell them that between themselves and the " parson-shooters ". the equality is complete; that there is morally no more difference between them and the assassins than there is between the man who commits murder and the man who suggests or instigates the commission of the crime; whether under cover of "justice to Ireland," or by means of the more atrocious and open confession that it is necessary to give" a heavy blow and a grea t discouragement t o P rotestant i sm " in that unhappy and unenlightened land.—Times. Judging by the frequency of his visits to Windsor, as well as from other Circumstances, Lord Palmerston appears to be the only connecting link between Lord Melbourne's Cabinet and their Royal Master. At all events, here can be no doubt of the fact, that the Premier's visits in the same quarter are " like angels, few and far between." Lord Palmerston's late inter views are conjectured to have had for their object an endeavour to obtain the King's sanction to a dissolu tion of Parliament. If such should have been the case, Ministers can hardly offer a more convincing earnest of their sense of their sinking popularity, than any attempt to appeal to the people now upon the old registry. Owing to their own preeious blun dering, it is true that the new registry cannot be re sorted to before the month of December, and that during the whole of November there will exist no re gistry at all, the whole constituency of the kingdom be ing disfranchised by Whig Acts of Parliament. Either then a dissolution must take place at once, or the elec tions cannot come on till near Christmas. The general impression is that Lord Palmerston has failed in his mis sion. To retain their places, Ministers have certainly a desperate card to play, and we may expect to see them play it desperately. The idea of a dissolution at the present moment is of that description. What they could expect to gain by such a step no one upon earth knows ; what they would lose, judging by every contest which has for a long time taken place, it is much more easy to conjecture. The real and only question for the country to decide is, " Can a Govern ment go on which submits to be the mere nominee of Mr. O'Connell ?" That is the point to which public affairs were reduced in the late session, and that under which the next, according to present appearances, must open. That a dissolution could not help them is almost past dispute. One end of the kingdom to the other rings with their unpopularity ; and, in the words of the old Jacobite song,—" Awa, Whigs, awa," is the one prevailing senti ment of the majority of all classes from John O'Groat's to Penzance. Still determined, as it were, "to die game," a desperate effort will, we have no doubt, be made to sustain them even in their dying moments. Failing in obtaining the King's consent to a dissolution of Parliament now, their course, in all probability, will be (if acting then under the same influence which now alone sustains them) again to force some obnoxious measure upon the House of Lords, and upon the Lords doing their duty, as they have hitherto done, by rejecting it, to de mand from the King a dissolution in the spring. Pro vided the Lords do their duty, as they have .hitherto, firmly, temperately, and advisedly, this, perhaps, will be the best issue to which the question can be brought, and we entertain no apprehensions asto the result. The new registry will be by that time ready, and we have no doubt that it will greatly strengthen the r an k s o f e, Con servatism. At the same time, it is and must be a source of poignant regret, that the real interests and business of the country must stand still while a contest is going on, the object of which is solely to sustain in power the most incapable and inconsistent faction that ever usurped or held the reins of office.—Morning Herald. Peerage Reform is now the test by which the sin cerity of all who profess liberal opinions must be proved, and no man nor body of men need expect to retain the confidence of the country, who denies the obvious necessity of abolishing at once, and for ever, the incongruous and absurd privilege of hereditary legislation. To effect a desire for general improve ment, and yet refuse to remove the obstacle which stands permanently in the way of every efficient mea sure of amelioration, is sheer hypocrisy and deceit. In Peerage Reform now rests the hope of Great Britain. A review of the two last Sessions must convince every impartial mind of the impossibility of improving our institutions and adapting them to the wants and neces sities of the people, while the House of Lords, based .. on the h ere dit ary pr i nc i p l e , h o ld s u n der i rres " .nsibl . tyranny th e popu l ar b ranc h o f th e SP ,- been sa id t h at t h e L or d s repr erj't .... ate.

It shows us Mr. O'Connell and his followers basely deserting that portion of the Irish people whom they had misled and inflamed, simply because legal process for the recovery of tithe, when applied to themselves, had been found more expensive and inconvenient than they had expected. It shows us the Melbourne Mi• nistry refusing to relieve Ireland from a fruitful and perennial source of discord, turbulence, poverty, and wretchedness, when they could have done so, with the concurrence and support even of the habitual and pro fessional agitators of that country. And for what did they refuse this boon to Ireland—this blessing to the whole empire which they pretend to govern ? Merely because they cherished, with the fondness of infatuated self-love, the darling question which had brought them into office.--Morning Post. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Paget's fleet again proceeded to sea on Sunday morning last, the Vanguard having been supplied with a new main yard, but when off Penlee Point the Bellerophon sprung her foremast, and the whole of the ships returned to the Sound the same day. The Bellerophon is ordered into harbour to have a new foremast. The Phoenix steamer was taken into dock on Wednesday to have her bottom examined, having been on shore on the coast of Spain. On the water leaving her keel, a keg, sup posed to have contained brands, was discovered to be jammed between the splinters of the keel as neatly as if ar ranged by the most experienced smuggler. The new steamer Volcano will not be commissioned until she has been to Woolwich and fitted with engines, boil ers, &c.

They were accompanied by Captain Sir W. Symonds, and Mr. Meek, of the Victualling Department. The Panta loon brig arrived shortly after the departure of the Fire brand, to attend on the Board, and followed the Firebrand to Milford. Their Lordships are expected to return to town on Saturday or Sunday next, from their official tour of inspection. The Board, it is now understood, will not visit Kingstown or Cork this year, though it was reported that there would be a grand naval review of the experimen tal squadron under Rear-Admiral the Hon.

Mr. Washington Irving is about to produce a new work, entitled " Astoria." The reputation of this writer is second to none of modern times ; witness his celebrated " Sketch Boo:;," which attained a sale of no less than twenty five thousand copies I Air. Irving's genius is no less remark able for grace and dramatic excellence than for variety—nar rative, wit, invention, and history, all being equally within its grasp. In Astoria' he has broken new ground, which will no doubt add to hi s f ame a f res h l aure l . Astoria' will be published on the Ist of October. A graduate of Cambridge gave another the lie, and a challenge followed. The mathematical tutor of his college, the late Mr. heard of the dispute, and sent for the youth, who told him he must fight.

(From the Hampshire Telegaph.) PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 10.—The Spitfire steamer arrived at Falmouth, on Tuesday, from the Mediterranean. She sailed from Malta the 23d, Algiers 25th, Gibraltar 30th, and Cadiz 31st. Passengers :—Mr. Todd, from Spain : and Dr. Clarke, from Alexandria. Nine French line-of battle ships bad arrived off Alexandria. The French Ad miral went on shore, and was well received. The Asia, Magpie, and Nautilus, had arrived at Malta, and the Nautilus had sailed for Athens to join the fleet. The Hermes steamer had arrived at Malta, and gone on to Corfu. The Spitfire left at Malta his Majesty's ships Asia, Magpie, and the Tartarus steamer. The Asia had got on shore under the rope-walk, but had received no da mage. Left at Gibraltar the Jasseur brig, and at Cadiz the Magicienne. The following is from a correspondent : " Malta, August 23, 1836. " Letters received from Tripoli to the 3d instant describe the state of warfare between the Turkish expedition and Osman Aglia as acquiring daily more and more obstinacy. It appears that the Arabs are united to a man in opposing the Capudan Pasha's troops, who have not been able to advance a hundred yards from the sea at Misurata, where they have entrenched themselves. The Arab forces are estimated at 15,000 cavalry and infantry. By a circular to the European Consuls, dated the 29th of July, the Capu dan Pasha has declared the coast, from Tripoli to Misurata, to be strictly blockaded ; a measure which, having for its object olny th e en f orcemen t o f fi sca l regu l at i ons , has been protested against by the British Consul. 'I he Santa Te resa, however, a Maltese vessel, was intercepted on ap proaching the coast of Misurata, and taken possession of by the Turkish cruisers on the 23d. The master and crew were taken out of her and carried before the Capudan Pasha, and :after being detained as prisoners for several days, it was with much difficulty that the British Consul got them liberated, and their vessel restored, after being ransacked for letters, which it was pretended she had on board for Osman Agha." Extract of a letter, dated Tartarus, steam-vessel, at Malta, Aug. 23 :—" The Tartarus arrived at Scanderoon on the 30th ult., and waited there till the 9th inst., for Colonel Chesney's mail from India : I am sorry to say, that none had arrived up to that date, nor could any late intelli gence of his position be obtained, therefore we were obliged to return here by way of Berout and Alexandria, arriving here this day. We are to have twenty days' quarantine. A French squadron anchored off Alexandria, while the Tartarus was off Scanderoon, but sailed the same day. There is very little plague now in Egypt." The Beacon, surveying ship, Lieut. Graves, sailed on Wednesday, to prosecute the survey of the Mediterranean. The Seaflower cutter, Lieutenant Roche, arrived on Sunday faom Sheerness, and is again attached to this com mand. She will sail in a few days for Jersey. The Inconstant frigate, Captain Hayes, will be taken out of the basin on Monday, on which day the Pique, Hon. Captain Rouse, will go out of harbour. The Conway, 28, is to be commissioned at this port by Captain Charles R. Drinkwater, who, with the following officers, are appointed to her :—Lieutenants T. M. Rodney and George Beadon, Mr. George Johnson, Master, Mr. Arthur Frame, Purser, Mr. J. T. Foster, Second Master, and Mr. F. Burnett, Mate (from the Pique). At St. Helen's—Cambridge, East Indiaman, put back, with loss of cross-jack yard. At Spithead—Jupiter and England (East Indiaman).

Saturday Robert Nightingale, a genteelly-dressed young man, was placed at the bar and indicted, charged with having committed a violent assault on Edward Lawrence, on the night of July 20th. Mr. C. PHILLIPS appeared for defendant. The prosecutor carried on business as a general dealer, at No. 65, Drury-lane, and knew the defendant, who, he believed, resided over the water. On the 20th of July last he met the defendant, about eleven o'clock at night, at a house in Cranbourne street, Leicester-square. In that house the defendant kept a gaming table ; he had been there a few evenings before, and had played. On that occasion he had had a bet with the defendant, who, notwithstanding he had lost, took up the money. On the second evening, that on which the assault complained of was committed, the defendant wanted him again to bet, but he refused, unless the former debt was paid. The defendant declined to refund. He then went and sat down at another part of the room, and entered into conversation with some other person. At the expiration of about twenty minutes, without any provocation, the defendant came up and struck him so violent a blow just above the right eye as to cut it open. Cross-examined—Was a general dealer, and sometimes pawned things when he was short of money ; he was not a " pawner," although he sometimes pawned things ; that was not his business. Mr. PHILLIPS—DO you mean to say you do not know that a "pawner" is a person who either manufactures fic titious articles of jewellery, or makes a business of pro curing them, and takes them to a pawnbroker's to pledge as genuine goods ? Witness—l know nothing about the business. Mr. PHILLIPPS—Pray how long is it since you were taken up to Bow-street on such a charge ? Witness—l never was at Bow-street. Mr. PHILLIPS—What ! not there ? Were you ever al Birmingham, then ? Witness—No. Mr. PHILLIPS—Pray how have you lived for these five or six years ? Witness—l have lived in Drury-lane part of the time, and have travelled about the country to do business for a subsistence. Mr. PHILLIPS—WeII, what have you 'dealt in ? to whom did you sell your last goods ? and what were they ? Witness—l have not had any money to buy goods with. What little money I have had I have earned by hard work. Mr. PHILLIPS—By " smashing" or " pawning ?" Wit ness—No. Mr. PHILLIPS—WeII, then, at the gaming table ? Witness—No. I am sorry to say at gambling-houses where I lost all my money. They have been my ruin. Mr. PHILLIPS—Oh ! indeed. Pray, how many wit nesses have you got to corroborate your statement ? Wit ness—Three. Mr. PHILLIPS—Who are they ? Witness then went on to say that they were Mr. Thompson, a tobacconist, who had known him between four and five years ; Mr. David Harris, a general dealer, who had known him for 15 years ; and a Mr. Samuel Lee, a waiter at a gaming -table, who had known him from a child. Neither of them, however, had ever visited him in Drury-lane. Henry Thompson, who, with the other witnesses, had been ordered out of the Court, was then called. He said he was a tobacconist, and was at the house when the as sault was committed on the prosecutor. The witness then proceeded to give his version, which varied essentially from that sworn to by the prosecutor. Cross-examined—Was a tobacconist. Mr. PHILLIPS—Pray, Sir, where is your shop, and how long have you been in that business ? Witness (hesitating) —Why, I have not opened yet, but I am going to. Mr. PHILLIrs—Now, Sir, tell the Court whether you are not the driver of a cab ? Witness (after some time) I have driven one ; I did so for about eighteen months, but do not now. The CHAIRDIAN—Oh, then, you are a defunct cab driver, and an embryo tobacconist.—(Much laughter.) Mr. Prum.irs—He is a tobacconist in the leaf (Laughter.) Cross-examination resumed—Does not know where the prosecutor lives, and believes him to be a working-jeweller. David Harris was next called in.—He confirmed the tes timony of the last witness. Cross-examined—ls a general dealer. Mr. PHILLIPS—Pray, - Sir, do you know Mr. Levy the Sheriff's officer ? Witness—Yes, I know a little of him. Mr. PHILLIPS—And your general dealing consists in being a follower of his ? Witness.—No. ___ Mr. PriurArs—Oh ! I beg your pardon, not a follower— a partner perhaps ? Witness—No, not that either ; I wish I was a partner. Mr. PHILLIPS—WeII, what connection have you with him ? Witness—Why, when he wants me I act for him ; he employs me when he has any thing for me to do. The Chairman here asked the prosecutor if he wished to call his other witness. The prosecutor, with the utmost sang froid—Just as you please, Sir ; if you wish it.—(Much laughter.) The CHAIRMAN—NO, it is not my case. wish. It is not as I The prosecutor, after pondering for a few minutes amidst the smiles which pervaded the Court, said with great confi dence of manner, and as though he considered his case as satisfactorily established, "Oh ! No, Sir, there is no oc- casion." The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The CHAIRMAN ordered the defendant to pay the fine of one shilling, and then to be discharged. The fine was paid, and the party liberated. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSIOAT-HOUSE. A young man, named William George Twiteham, was brought before Sir CHAPItAN MARSHALL, charged with having plundered his master of a quantity of jewellery, watches, ttc. The case excited a great deal of interest. Mr. Hart, jeweller, of Bevis Marks, stated the prisoner was - his warehouseman, and had lived in his employment fifteen or sixteen months, On Friday witness picked up in the counting-house a duplicate for a gold watch, and sus pecting that foul play had been going on, went to the pawnbroker, and having ascertained that it was his pro perty, requested that the pawnbroker would accompany him to his counting-house, and point out the person who had pledged the article. When the pawnbroker pointed out the prisoner as the party, witness accused another young man at the desk, who was also in his employment, saying to him, " You villain, you have been robbing me." The young man thus falsely charged, began to cry bitterly, and declared that he had never done anything of the kind, and the prisoner then acknowledged that he (the prisoner) was the thief. After some expressions of indignation witness went, accompanied by an officer, to the prisoner's bed-room, and upon examining the trunks there, found in one of them a silver repeating watch, three parcels of duplicates, and a regular list of the pawned articles, all of which were wit ness's property, and showing that the prisoner had com menced his work of robbery about a fortnight after he was taken into the concern. There were 35 duplicates. Sir. C. MARSHALL—Had you suspected him before ? Witness—l had ; I had some time ago missed an ounce and a half of wedding-rings , and nobody could find them ; and I have missed severa articles, which, upon my com plaining, found their way back next day, but whether from the pawnbroker's or not Ido not know. But what excites my indignation most of all is, that nobody was at case in the house for his religion ; his pockets were stowed with reli gious tracts, and the Bible was a book of constant reference and study to him. Sir C. MARSHALL-I am sorry to say that that volume is often abused and perverted to the very worst purposes. Witness—Nobody could move without a religious lec ture ; I thought there was too much of it. The policeman who took the prisoner into custody found several religious tracts in his pockets and trunks, and some letters from females. A copy of a letter of his own to a girl, expressive of his strong love for her, although she re fused to listen to his addresses, was found among his papers. It was evident from the whole correspondence that he had been associated with dangerous persons. Sir C. MARSHALL asked the prisoner whether he wished to say anything. He shook his head, which he had covered during the examination with his handkerchief, but said nothing. Remanded, Q UEEN-SQUARE. Two members of the " swell mob," named John Romsey and James committing depredations at Barnet Races. Both prisoners were fully committed to the Middlesex Sessions for trial, and to be detained on several other charges which are expected to be brought against them.
